Jay Ajayi, Darren Sproles Day-To-Day

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said running backs Jay Ajayi (back) and Darren Sproles (hamstring) are day-to-day, but also said that Sproles' recovery is "a little longer." With Josh Adams being promoted from the practice squad on Tuesday, it looks like Sproles will be doubtful for Week 3 against the Colts. Ajayi could be […]

Mike Wallace Placed On IR

The Philadelphia Eagles placed wide receiver Mike Wallace (leg) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday with a fractured fibula. In a corresponding move, the Eagles signed receiver Jordan Matthews. Matthews has dealt with a hamstring injury and was cut by the Patriots, but he has 117 targets (led the team) from quarterback Carson Wentz in 2016. […]

Takkarist McKinley Day-To-Day

Atlanta Falcons defensive end Takkarist McKinley (groin) is listed as day-to-day and his status is up in the air for Week 3 against the Saints, but the team is taking a wait-and-see approach with him. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport added that McKinley's injury isn't considered a long-term ailment. McKinley is a solid young pass rusher, […]

T.J. Yeldon, Austin Seferian-Jenkins Not Expected To Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon (ankle) and tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins (abdomen) are not expected to practice on Wednesday. Yeldon had 10 carries for 58 yards on the ground in the Week 2 win over the Patriots, but he won't be a flex option again if Leonard Fournette (hamstring) returns to the backfield. ASF […]

Leonard Fournette To Return To Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is expected to practice on Wednesday after sitting out in the Week 2 win over the Patriots. It's good news that he'll be able to return in Week 3 to face the Titans in a good matchup. Fournette will once again be in the RB1 conversation in Week […]

Josh Gordon Trade Not Completed Yet

The New England Patriots are trying to finalize the acquisition of wide receiver Josh Gordon from the Cleveland Browns on Wednesday. The holdup is related to the Pats receiving an extra draft pick as part of the deal, according to a source informed of the situation. The Patriots are finalizing the acquisition of a seventh-round […]

Matthew Festa To Start Wednesday

Seattle Mariners reliever Matthew Festa will make the start against the Astros on Wednesday as the opener for a bullpen game. While Festa does have a nice 1.69 ERA, he's thrown just 5 1/3 innings over four outings in the big league this year and can be avoided in all fantasy leagues, as he will […]

Austin Meadows Coming Up Thursday

The Tampa Bay Rays will call up outfield prospect Austin Meadows and pitchers Hoby Milner, Austin Pruitt and Chih-Wei Hu from Triple-A Durham on Thursday. Meadows was a key piece in the trade that sent starter Chris Archer to the Pirates this summer. The outfielder hit an impressive .344/.396/.771 with 10 homers and 22 RBI […]

Eddie Rosario, Mitch Garver Likely Done For The Year

Minnesota Twins outfielder Eddie Rosario (quadriceps) and catcher Mitch Garver (concussion) will head back to Minnesota and are both likely done for the year. Rosario will undergo an MRI exam on his right quadriceps. They can both be dropped in single-year formats. Rosario was one of the few bright spots for the Twins this year, […]

Aroldis Chapman Activated From DL

The New York Yankees activated closer Aroldis Chapman (knee) from the 10-day disabled list on Wednesday. Get The flame-throwing lefty back into all starting lineups, as he could immediately be returned to his ninth-inning duties over David Robertson and Dellin Betances. Chapman is 3-0 on the year with a 2.11 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, 31 saves […]

Gabriel Moya To Serve As Opener Wednesday

Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Gabriel Moya will serve as the opener again on Wednesday against the Tigers, with Stephen Gonsalves being the primary pitcher to follow him. The left-handed Moya is beginning to find a niche as an opener, but he has just a 4.73 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 29 strikeouts in 32 1/3 innings […]

X-Rays Negative On Travis Shaw

Updating a previous report, X-rays turned up negative on Milwaukee Brewers infielder Travis Shaw (knee) after he was hit by a pitch and left the game early on Tuesday. Shaw is likely just dealing with a knee contusion and could return very soon. There's a chance he might not even need to miss a game. […]

Lorenzo Cain Dealing With Intercostal Issue

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Lorenzo Cain (intercostal) has been dealing with an intercostal issue and was removed from the game early on Tuesday, according to manager Craig Counsell. Cain tweaked his side on a swing the other day. He was hitless in two plate appearances with a strikeout before leaving on Tuesday. The Brewers are likely […]

Mookie Betts Likely To DH Wednesday

Boston Red Sox outfielder and MVP candidate Mookie Betts (side) was unavailable on Tuesday but is likely to serve as the designated hitter on Wednesday. It's great news for fantasy owners, as they'll get their first-round pick back with a likely championship ring on the line to close out the season. Betts is hitting an […]

Jimmy Yacabonis To Start Wednesday

Detroit Tigers pitcher Jimmy Yacabonis will start on Wednesday against the Blue Jays. Jacabonis has an ugly 7.22 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 8.2 K/9 over nine outings (four starts) in the big leagues this year. You aren't competing for a fantasy championship if you're even considering using him on Wednesday. Stay away.

Jeimer Candelario Leaves Game Early

Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario (spine) left the game early on Tuesday with a lumbar spine spasm. Candelario had a walk and a strikeout in his four plate appearances on Tuesday before departing the contest. At this point in the season, an injury like that could keep him from playing another game. It'll depend […]

Travis Shaw Injured Tuesday

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Travis Shaw (knee) left the game early on Tuesday with a bruised right knee after he was hit by a pitch. Shaw scored a run in his lone plate appearance before leaving the game. It's unknown how serious this injury is, but hopefully for Shaw owners he won't need to miss much […]

Jameis Winston Being Sued By Uber Driver

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston, currently serving a three-game suspension, is being sued by the Arizona Uber driver who accused him of sexual assault by groping her in March of 2016. Kate P. is seeking more than $75,000 in damages. Winston hasn't been criminally charged in the incident and is unlikely to face further […]

Trevor Story's Ligament Is Intact

Colorado Rockies manager Bud Black said that doctors gave shortstop Trevor Story (elbow) good news on Tuesday. Story is dealing with inflammation in his right elbow, and the ligament is intact. However, the team is still waiting for a thorough diagnosis, and it's unclear if Story will be able to return this year. The fact […]

Homer Bailey Likely Done For Season

Cincinnati Reds pitcher Homer Bailey appears to be done for the 2018 season. The open spot in the rotation for Sunday against the Marlins will either go to Michael Lorenzen or someone else in the bullpen, according to manager Jim Riggleman. "As far as starting, yeah," Riggleman said. "Homer has indicated that he can't relieve. […]

Nick Senzel To Play Outfield In Instructional League

Cincinnati Reds prospect Nick Senzel (finger), the team's top prospect, played second base at Triple-A Louisville this year, shortstop in big league spring training and is in Arizona this week to learn the outfield during the instructional league. The 23-year-old will play in games starting on Oct. 1, and the Reds envision him playing a […]

Trevor Cahill Throws Tuesday

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Trevor Cahill (back) threw from 120 feet on Tuesday and is still trying to work his way back into the rotation. The team will see how he feels on Wednesday, and there remains no guarantee that he'll return this year. Cahill has about a week and a half left, so he'd […]

Salvador Perez Scratched Tuesday

Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez (thumb) was scratched from the lineup on Tuesday due to lingering soreness from his left thumb sprain. Meibrys Viloria took over behind the plate and was hitting eighth against Pirates starter Jameson Taillon on Tuesday. With KC having nothing to play for down the stretch, Perez could see more […]

James Paxton Throwing Tuesday

Updating a previous report, Seattle Mariners starting pitcher James Paxton (illness) is throwing in the bullpen before the game on Tuesday. It was previously reported that Paxton wouldn't throw until at least Wednesday, so this gives us hope that he can make at least one more start this year and possibly as soon as this […]

Jordan Howard Needs More Carries

Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy acknowledged that running back Jordan Howard could stand to see a few more carries, but the team will need to be leading in the fourth quarter for that to happen. Through two weeks, 11 players have more carries than Howard's 29 and 11 also have more rushing yards than […]

Handful Of Players Could Return In Week 3 For Seattle

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said there is hope that linebackers Bobby Wagner (groin) and K.J. Wright (knee), offensive guard D.J. Fluker (hamstring) and cornerback Tre Flowers (hamstring) can return in Week 3 against the Cowboys. Seattle could desperately use both Wagner and Wright back in the middle of their struggling defense. If all […]

Pete Carroll Says Russell Wilson Was Over-Trying

Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said quarterback Russell Wilson was "over-trying" in Monday night's Week 2 loss to the Bears on the road. Wilson went 22-for-36 for 226 yards, two touchdowns, an interception returned for a touchdown and a lost fumble. He was also sacked six times, with five coming in the first half. […]

Carlos Martinez, Bud Norris Unavailable Tuesday

St. Louis Cardinals closer Carlos Martinez and relief pitcher Bud Norris (finger) will be unavailable on Tuesday. Martinez has pitched each of the last two nights, while Norris is dealing with a blister issue and also was unavailable on Monday. St. Louis' bullpen will be short-handed Tuesday night, meaning Jordan Hicks is likely the favorite […]

Mitch Garver Unlikely To Do Baseball Activities Until This Weekend

Minnesota Twins catcher Mitch Garver (concussion) is still dealing with concussion symptoms. Manager Paul Molitor doesn't "see anything happening baseball-wise" until at least this weekend. It's looking like Garver won't play again before the end of the season. Catchers Willian Astudillo and Chris Gimenez will likely split time behind the dish, with Astudillo being much […]

Felix Hernandez To Test Injury With Bullpen

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Felix Hernandez (hamstring) will rejoin the team in Texas this weekend and will throw a bullpen session to test his hamstring before a decision is made on when his next start will be. Hernandez last started on Sept. 8 and would likely only be able to make one more start this […]
